The pub is conveniently located within the Whitehills Business Park, just off the M55. It offers Wifi, food and drink, and toilet facilities so drivers can wait in comfort whilst they charge their car.

Paying for charging should be as easy as possible, that is why each Evyve ‘rapid’ charger allows payment via either contactless credit/debit card, the Evyve app or via third parties such as Allstar Fuel Cards, Octopus Electroverse and Zap Pay, amongst many others.

James Moat, CEO of Evyve, said: “We are on a mission to drive sustainable solutions quickly and to improve the UK’s EV infrastructure. Currently a lack of charging infrastructure is often cited as one of the biggest barriers to EV adoption in the UK. As we install at our 90th Tritium Greene King location, we want to spread awareness of our partnership and celebrate the swift progress we are making with the deployment of ‘rapid’ chargers nationwide.”
